When Eder looked back at her, her face was not showing anything anymore. She was back to be stoic again. But Eder knew better than to fall for this.
"let me go" she told him, his arm was still holding her.
"you were about to say something"
"it is not important" she said avoiding his gaze. Eder knew that she was not going to speak and it was a lost course to probe further. But he won't stop now.
"okay, come let's eat"
"No, I want to leave" she told him.
"no .." he scooped her up unexpectedly and she instinctively held onto his neck . "… you need to regain some forces before I let you leave" he said while taking her to the dinning room.
"you don't have to carry me, I can walk" she said.
